Las tapas no son solo un tipo de comida, sino una manera de socializar, de encontrarnos con amigos, de charlar mientras picoteamos alguna cosa, a veces hasta con desconocidos. ¡Las tapas ayudan a consolidar las relaciones humanas! Cuando nos sentamos a una mesa o nos ponemos delante de la barra de un bar con unas patatas bravas, un buen trozo de tortilla o un plato de chipirones, con una cerveza, una copa de vino o un refresco, el tiempo parece detenerse. Aprovechamos para hablar de fútbol, política, amor, amistad, y en ocasiones incluso creemos que podemos arreglar el mundo con una copa y un plato. Las tapas forman parte de una tradición, de nuestra cultura. Este libro recoge esa tradición y esa cultura y propone recetas españolas que nos han acompañado toda la vida.

Failing Gloriously and Other Essays documents Shawn Graham's odyssey through the digital humanities and digital archaeology against the backdrop of the 21st-century university. At turns hilarious, depressing, and inspiring, Graham's book presents a contemporary take on the academic memoir, but rather than celebrating the victories, he reflects on the failures and considers their impact on his intellectual and professional development. These aren't heroic tales of overcoming odds or paeans to failure as evidence for a macho willingness to take risks. They're honest lessons laced with a genuine humility that encourages us to think about making it safer for ourselves and others to fail.A foreword from Eric Kansa and an afterword by Neha Gupta engage the lessons of Failing Gloriously and consider the role of failure in digital archaeology, the humanities, and social sciences.

How do children construct, negotiate and organize space? The study of social space in any human group is fraught with limitations, and to these we must add the further limits involved in the study of childhood. Here specialists from archaeology, history, literature, architecture, didactics, museology and anthropology build a body of theoretical and methodological approaches about how space is articulated and organized around children and how this disposition affects the creation and maintenance of social identities. Children are considered as the main actors in historic dynamics of social change, from prehistory to the present day. Notions on space, childhood and the construction of both the individual and the group identity of children are considered as a prelude to papers that focus on analyzing and identifying the spaces which contribute to the construction of children’s identity during their lives: the places they live, learn, socialize and play. A final section deals with these same aspects, but focuses on funerary contexts, in which children may lose their capacity to influence events, as it is adults who establish burial strategies and practices. In each case authors ask questions such as: how do adults construct spaces for children? How do children manage their own spaces? How do people (adults and children) build (invisible and/or physical) boundaries and spaces?
